It would seem to be upside down. Rotate through 180 degrees and it shows a careful drawing of a winter tree, in which the artist is attempting the gradience between larger boughs and smaller branches and twigs. S/he has omitted the trunk, so a second guess would be some arrangement of veins and capillaries.
Not sure why it should be thought of as a stamp (except for the perforated paper). It does not satisfy any definition of a postage stamp, though I suppose it could be a label detached from one.
re: Nobody seems to know anything about this stamp.
It is a genuine postage stamp. The paper seem to have some kind of watermark to it, but I can’t picture it out.
Also if observed closely, there is like a slight embossment horizontally which I believe was created from the post office sorting rollers. And it has been with me for many years till todate.

Sunny, the paper is real stamp paper, I am sure, but this is a doodle that was made on a piece of blank stamp paper that you find along the edges of a sheet of stamps. These blank pieces of paper on the edges of sheets and panes is referred to as selvage.

Greetings to all,
Below is the back of the weird stamp.
Hope all may assist. Thanking all in advance.
Info that I observed are;-
- stamp seems to have lots of alphanumeric watermarks, just can’t figure it out.
- size is 3.75CM x 2.75CM edge of perforation to edge of perforation.
- design, branches resemble alphabets
re: Nobody seems to know anything about this stamp.
I'll hazard a guess. It could be a stamp where only the black was printed. This is printer's waste that someone sneaked out of the printing plant. I'm not sure but I think that it is a good guess.
